I do love what Whoopi Goldberg does with her character Rizzoli as an undercover
narcotics cop. But the term Fatal Beauty is for a certain deadly designer drug that
she is tracking down the source of. Nevertheless Whoopi proves to be quite
fatal to any number of the characters in the film.
But this film suffers from a really muddled script and the distinct possibility that the several bad guys who want this shipment of this nasty Fatal Beauty stuff are imbibing a bit too much of it themselves. Whoopi's target is Harris Yulin a big New Orleans contractor who is deep in the narcotics trade unofficially. But Yulin himself has troubles in his own ranks.
Sam Elliott's character as Yulin's bodyguard and enforcer is also a mystery. I couldn't figure out what his function is as he keeps saving Goldberg.
Whoopi is fun to watch especially slugging it out with rich society woman Jennifer Warren. But the film is just too murky.
